Vanilla Orange Lemonade

This post in compensated. All opinions are mine and mine alone.

Looking for a new spin on a lemonade recipe. I love lemonade in the summer but still want to drink it for fall. So why not give it some spice. Decided to try vanilla orange lemonade and it was amazing. It really hit the spot, was so easy, and simple to make.

This will be perfect for those hot summer days and also those mid afternoons sitting on your porch with a fall chill in the air. If you try this recipe. Comment and let me know how you liked it. Did you spice it up with some vanilla!  Nielsen-Massey Vanillas was founded in 1907 and remains a family company, owned and operated by the 3rd generation of Nielsens.  Madagascar Bourbon vanilla has a sweet, creamy flavor with velvety after-tones and makes for an excellent “all-purpose” vanilla, perfect for any sweet or savory recipe.

You can buy some Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Bean Paste. What I used for this recipe. You can buy it at a local store and look up more info on Nielsen-Massey Website. They use uses proprietary cold extraction process instead of heat extraction to preserve all of the 300+ distinctive flavor compounds present in vanilla beans. This cold extraction process takes 3-5 weeks – using heat and pressure in the extraction process takes only 3-5 days but damages and destroys many of the most delicate flavor notes in the beans.
